Andrew Francis's Culture and Commerce in Conrad's Asian Fiction is the first book-length study of commerce in Conrad's work. It reveals not only the complex connections between culture and commerce in Conrad's Asian fiction but also how he employed commerce in characterization, moral contexts, and his depiction of relations at a point of advanced European imperialism. Conrad's treatment of commerce - Arab, Chinese, and Malay as well as European - is explored within a historically specific context as intricate and resistant to traditional readings of commerce as it is simple and homogenous. Through the analysis of both literary and nonliterary sources, this book examines capitalism, colonialism, and globalization within the commercial, political, and social contexts of colonial Southeast Asia.
